CASE STUDY

Dobbies Garden World, Speke, LiverpoolExtensive block paving both internal and external

CLIENT: Dobbies Garden Centre, Speke

CONTRACTOR: Gilbert Ash

DURATION: 6 months

40

In 2011, Kilsaran supplied in excess of 8000sqm of block

paving too Dobbies Garden World in Speke, Liverpool.

Kilsaran is the approved supplier to all Dobbies new

build stores.

The use of a concrete block paver within the internal sales

area of the store was one design feature that required the

use of a specialist block. This area had to delivery no trolley

movement and low noise. The use of our Natural colour

Lismore block met these criteria perfectly. This block has

no nib which allows for easy, rattle-free trolley movement

across its surface.

The second area was the outside sales display, here

Dobbies chose our Slane 200x100x60mm block paver in

both Rustic and Charcoal colour, as a both practical and

cost effective solution.

The final product selection met the requirements of planning

condition PPS25 and the allowance for a sustainable urban

drainage system (Suds). Here Dobbies chose our

permeable paving system, Clima-pave Slane in Rustic. This

product is a 200x100x80mm block which was laid in a 90

degree herringbone pattern to the parking bay area at the

front of store. Not only did this product lift the aesthetical

appeal of the project but also performed a practical and

cost effective solution to the issue of surface water runoff,

by allowing it to filter naturally back to ground.

Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems and Water

Source Control

Advantages of Permeable Paving

Permeable paving is a ‘source control’ method. Water

is managed and dealt with on-site without piping off to

storage tanks or surface water treatment systems

The Water Framework Directive (Directive 2000/60/EC)

requires that surface water discharges are managed

to ensure that risk of contamination or pollution are

mitigated. Permeable paving systems filter contaminants

by microbial action. There is no requirement for

additional filtering/polishing with permeable paving in

normal use

Separate attenuation tank systems are not required

No need for gullies or channels or conventional drainage

Recharges ground water

Roofs, roads and other non-permeable areas can be

discharged into permeable paving (no gullies required)

No ponding or surface water

Collected water can potentially be re-used for

non-potable purposes

Improves water quality

Clima-pave Permeable Paving offers an advantage over

traditional SUDS techniques, such as storm water attenuation

tanks. This is because the stone based sub-base, which

needs to be installed for any type of surfacing material,

is adapted to an open graded material in permeable

paving systems. This allows the water collected from the

site to be stored in the pavement and either infiltrated

back into the ground or discharged at a controlled rate

into the surface water drainage system.

The Clima-pave system is constructed using our specially

engineered permeable paving block, which has enlarged

joints on all sides, typically 4-8mm in width. When the

blocks have been laid, a corresponding slot is formed

between the paving blocks which are then filled with a

clean 3mm aggregate. This allows water to rapidly drain

from the surface down into the pavement.

Advantages of Clima-pave Permeable Paving

For Your Project

Clima-pave offers one of the widest ranges of permeable

paving products for use in commercial, retail and civic

projects. Kilsaran can also offer a full site-specific permeable

paving design for your project, taking into account the

siteground conditions, drainage requirements and

structural and traffic loading requirements for the site.

The rapid development of previously green-field sites

and the associated creation of impermeable areas such

as roofs, car parks and footpaths will mean that at project

conception stage there will be potentially large volumes

of surface water to be dealt with. Traditionally this has

been done by piping the surface water into storage tanks

or discharging it into nearby streams or surface water

drainage. This method of drainage is not currently favoured

by planners and designers, as it simply moves the surface

water downstream where it still has to be dealt with.

This is especially important where large volumes of water

need to be handled during heavy rainfall events. Piping

large volumes of water into streams and rivers increases

the risk of flooding and also allows for the potential pollution

of local water courses and drinking water supplies.

Planners are encouraging the use of Sustainable Urban

Drainage Systems (SUDS) in all new developments.

In particular the use of appropriate source control

techniques is important as this allows for the containment

of the surface water collected on the site, and for this

surface water to be dealt with on-site as opposed to

traditionally draining it off-site. SUDS, as a sustainable

development approach to Surface Water Design

Techniques, has the aim of attaining the following:

1 To manage water run-off from developed areas to

similar quantities prior to development (Source Control)

2 Reduce and avoid incidences of downstream flooding

3 To protect or enhance water quality of the run-off

4 To improve or enhance the amenity where possible

Design Guidance

Clima-pave Permeable Paving provides a structural pavement suitable for both pedestrian and vehicular traffic

depending on design. The water management and permeable functionality of the pavement is largely dependent

on the correct specification and design of the pavement to meet the unique requirements of the individual site.

The correct specification, testing and installation of aggregates is of paramount importance with any permeable

paving system to ensure the finished pavement meets both initial and long term design requirements.

We advise that all permeable pavements require a site-specific design which should be carried out in accordance

with BS 7533-13:2009 Pavements constructed with clay, natural stone or concrete pavers: Guide for the design

of permeable pavements constructed with concrete paving blocks and flags, natural stone slabs and setts and

clay pavers.

We can provide a design service to customers who require a site specific design to be carried out for their project.

In order to create a site specific design we will require the following information to be emailed to:

[email protected]

The information required includes:

Drawings of proposed site layout in AutoCad

Full existing and proposed site levels for the pavement

Full site investigation report to establish ground conditions and soaked CBR values of the sub-grade

at formation level

Infiltration values from soak-pit testing to BRE 365

Overall drainage design strategy for the site

Planning requirements or conditions for the site relating to paving and drainage (e.g., discharge limits)

Any other pertinent site specific information or client / contractor requirements

Design Guidance Basics

The below information is provided for guidance purposes only at project conception stage to allow appraisal of a

permeable pavement system. Full independent advice should be sought from both the Consulting Engineer and

the Contractor prior to the commencement of works. A full site-specific design will always be required in

accordance with the above guidelines and BS 7533-13:2009.

The design information below is based on BS 7533-13:2009 which should also be consulted at project appraisal stage.

Types of Permeable Pavement

There are three main types of permeable pavement commonly used on sites:

The diagrams above are typical build-up details for permeable pavement systems based on BS 7533-13:2009. These

diagrams are based on ideal site conditions for drainage and CBR values of 5% or greater. The diagrams are for project

appraisal purposes only and in all cases a site specific design in accordance with BS 7533-13:2009 will be required.

Sloping Sites

Where sloping sites are unavoidable due to site layout, it will be necessary to reduce any sharp falls to maintain the

water attenuation capacity of the system. This can be achieved by creating ‘dams’ in the sub-base of the pavement

which will ‘step’ the pavement sub-base and reduce the overall falls. On extreme slopes, the pavement can be terraced

with a step down and a dam between the two levels to restrict water flow.

System A - Full Infiltration: All water from the

pavement is infiltrated to the ground. Suitable for

sites with good ground conditions, higher CBR

values and soils which will readily allow water to

dissipate through the ground. These favourable

conditions are rarely encountered on larger sites.

System C - Fully Tanked System: No water is allowed

to infiltrate to ground. This type of system is used

where poor sub-grade drainage conditions exist

(heavy clays and brown field sites), where the stability

of the sub-grade would diminish if extra surface water

was introduced, or where ground water levels are

within 1 metre of the formation level (system could

gain water). In this system the sub-base acts

essentially as an attenuation tank, wrapped in an

impermeable polythene membrane and all water is

piped out.

System B - Partial Infiltration: Most water infiltrated

to ground with excess water piped off. Suitable for

sites with medium ground conditions. The sub-grade

soil will infiltrate some of the water in the system.

When storm events occur and water builds up in the

system due to the soil being at capacity for drainage,

perforated pipes are laid in the bottom of the sub-

base to deal with the excess, taking it to the surface

water drainage system. This is the most commonly

used type of permeable pavement.

Selection of Pavement Type

The type of permeable pavement system to be adopted is based primarily on site ground conditions, site suitability and

the permeability values of the sub-grade encountered on site from infiltration soak-pit testing. Table 1 gives guidance on

the suitability of the three types of permeable pavement system.

Clima-pave

The design of the sub-base for the permeable pavement should take into account the traffic loadings likely to use the pavement.

It is essential to take into account any future increase in traffic volume and any HGV traffic which may use the pavement

irrespective of how frequent. The correct loading category should be then selected from Table 2 taking into account

the above considerations. It should be noted that no layers of the permeable pavement are designed for site traffic to

use them and when finished the permeable pavementsurface should not be trafficked by site traffic vehicles which are

heavier than that for which the pavement was designed. It is advisable to complete paving works after all other work in

the vicinity has been completed.

Sub-Base Thickness For Water Storage

The sub-base depth must also take into consideration the water storage requirements for the site. The depth of sub-base

may have to be adjusted to allow for increased site specific water storage. Further guidance on hydraulic factors can be

found in BS 7533-13:2009 section 5.4.

Adjustment To Pavement Design For Low CBR Sub-Grade

In the case of CBR values below 5%, either ground improvement work will be required for the site, or the thickness of the

coarse graded aggregate sub-base will have to be adjusted in accordance with 5.6.3 and table 9 of BS 7533-13:2009.

Construction & Maintenance Guidelines

To ensure correct performance and durability of a permeable pavement, a fully detailed design should be carried out in

accordance with BS 7533-13:2009 taking into account all site specific requirements for the project. Construction should

be carried out strictly in accordance with BS 7533-13:2009 and BS 7533-3 by a fully competent and experienced

contractor, familiar with permeable paving standards and installation methodology. All materials to be used shall be

tested for full compliance to the above standard both before supply and during construction. It is also advised not to use

any of the layers of permeable pavement construction for site traffic unless the build-up has been specifically designed

to accommodate this. Additionally site equipment such as tele-handlers and forklifts should not be used on the paving

surface after construction has been completed unless the pavement has been designed to accommodate this.

Maintenance

Kilsaran advise that all design, construction and maintenance be carried out to the full requirements of BS 7533-13:2009 and the Interpave

‘Guide to the Construction and Maintenance of Concrete Block Permeable Pavements’. The contractor should ensure that all aspects of

the aforementioned standard are adhered to at all times. Workmanship of the block paving at both installation stage and during subse-

quent site inspections should fully meet the requirements of BS 7533-3. Periodic visual inspection of the paving initially after 6-12 weeks

from installation should be carried out to ensure all joints are full and no movement or damage to any localized areas. Afterwards a 6 to 12

month full visual inspection should be carried out to ensure continuing compliance with the BS 7533-13:2009 standard.

Permeable pavements should not be contaminated with soft landscaping materials, soil, detritus or general dirt as this may wash into the

pavement. Also the pavement should not be trafficked by construction traffic or unsuitably heavy vehicles above that for which the pave-

ment was designed.

To keep any growths or weeds to a minimum it is advised that the installed permeable paving be sealed with an appropriate sealer, such

as Kilsaran Paving Sealer. Where the paved area is beneath overhanging trees or in a very damp area, an annual treatment of an environ-

mentally friendly weedkiller can be applied. Note the weedkiller should be applied as directed by the supplier and only in very dry weather

where rain is not expected, active weedkiller could be washed into the subsystem otherwise.

The pavement should be inspected on a routine basis as determined by local site factors, and carefully swept as required using a mechan-

ical sweeper or by hand for smaller areas. The sweeping action may remove some of the jointing grit from the surface, the joints should be

topped up after sweeping if required.

Should silting or blocking of the joints occur perhaps after a period of time, the use of a suitable jet wash and suction sweeper should be

used to remove the defective material. It is likely that the jetting of the pavement will remove some jointing grit. This grit should be replaced

immediately after cleaning to fill all joints.

As with conventional block pavements, depressions, rutting and cracked or broken blocks which may be a structural concern or a hazard

to users should be remedied immediately in line with the above standards.

Permeable Pavements will drain relatively quickly compared with other types of surfacing, and are not as liable to freezing over of standing

water, hoar frosts may occur which can cause surface slip on any material. The use of de-icing salts on permeable pavements, as with any

other concrete surface, should be kept to a minimum as the chlorides in the salt will penetrate the concrete and excessive use will dam-

age the surface. Where it is decided by the paving user to use de-icing material, any de-icing material applied should not cause blockage

or clogging of the permeable pavement joints (if blockage occurs in localised areas this will need to be removed by suction sweeper and

joints topped up with appropriate jointing grit). De-icing materials must always be applied prior to frost or snow forming on the surface ie

the material should be spread on the surface the night before frost or snow occurs, de-icing materials are significantly less effective after

freezing conditions have occurred on a surface and application to a surface which has already frozen over is likely to increase any potential

damage caused to the surface through over-application and thermal shock to the surface. All de-icing materials should be swept off and

fully cleaned off the surface immediately after the freezing conditions have passed. It should also be considered that any de-icing

material used may drain into either the subgrade or the drainage system through the permeable pavement. Care should be taken to ensure

no contamination of water courses or drainage systems.

It is of paramount importance that all permeable pavements should have jointing checked on an ongoing basis to ensure all joints are clear

and free from dirt and debris and that any joints which are clogged or dirty are cleaned out fully. Joints should then be topped up fully at all

times with suitably compliant jointing grit ensuring all joints are completely full. The frequency of inspection and top up of joints will depend

on the usage of the pavement and cleaning regimes in place

Presentations and Training

As a member of the RIBA accredited CPD provider’s network, Kilsaran is offering a CPD seminar on the fundamentals of installing

permeable paving. Kilsaran’s experts will guide you through planning, design and the building constraints associated with

installing a cost effective SuDs solution, including product selection and maintenance issues. If you are unsure of the potential of

using permeable paving, ask for a presentation and discuss your requirements in more detail with a Kilsaran representative.
